[@drewcarry8280]

I always go sorc, even when it's not the best or rogue, but i'm stoked to actually finally playing the necro as it should be played W.

[@drewcarry8280]

Thought about making a leveling necro to at least 25 to see the difference in leveling damage for when the S4 goes live to compare? not sure if you did or thought about doing that.

[@hotpipe2113]

Will try both Necro and Barb, both focusing on Thorns. Hoping it fares better late game.

[@peterlustig1534]

Hey Rob, erstmal vielen Dank für dein Video, hat mir sehr geholfen! Ich hab kürzlich einen guten Ring of mendeln gefunden, ist der noch nützlich und könntest du einen Build empfehlen? Danke für deine Arbeit 🤗

[@SuhandiWijaya]

What I like about Rob is that even his main class is Barb, he still is enthuastic and impartial about other classes as much. This is true dedication to his work, unlike some KZbinr that keep taking shots at broken build outside of his/her favorite main class 😂

[@motherpigeon1582]

Unlike the other ginger that knows fek all and brings nothing yet he is making interviews xD Also necro people are now pretending that it is great while not a long time ago were crying that barb op. So time to take medicines for some peeps.

[@jetman8856]

​@@motherpigeon1582nah you just mad he isn't exclusively covering this kindergarten game

[@nasa-bohica8516]

Shut up Meg

[@BillTheButcher365]

I wouldnt say impartial. He was whining about necros at first til people told him quit crying about it 😂😂😂😂. His Barb has been OP since launch and tried talking about necros smh

[@jordan_goes_in4378]

You mean Wudi?? Lol

[@SuhandiWijaya]

I love that they launched S4 Tuesday, so we will be blasting a heap of damage out on Tuesday.

[@Rob2628]

😅😅

[@sneeki3746]

Thanks Rob. Always positive, great attitude, mathematical genius for builds. 💪🏼😎

[@Rob2628]

Thanks man! Appreciate it 💪🏼😎

[@MrRaqal]

he stole this build from chinaman

[@doubledigital_]

I loved rocking my minion build even when it was not op.. and lets face it having ya own army of undead never gets old LOL , i totaly skipped seasn 3 so lets hope 4 is worth my time...

[@0Navv]

Love the build. Necro probably my first class in S4

[@RoxxSerm]

Hey. Will you make, or does it exist anywhere, a planner or a guide for the combo-build that plays both golem + mages? I dont feel like specializing into one direction and im fine taking a few performance hits on either side to have both builds combined.

[@konstantinospetrakis2418]

Hey man! The paragon you're showing on your vid. is different to the one linked as the standard build. Which one is the right one ?

[@YOLOfication]

This build is awesome , it took me a day to level 50. I do rest awhile in between but once you start out at level 1 the fun begins is very addictive

[@zentai4324]

Your work ethic is unreal, while always being so positive too. You are a cool dude Rob! thanks :)

[@InfoRanker]

While I admit, I’m hyped to play this, I don’t know if you should be able to 1 shot an end boss in an arpg.

[@EternalGaze8]

Yeah they fixed that I think.

[@1337eddie]

What to do if I followed the Golem Boss Killer build and I am at 7k armor. How do I get capped??

[@rumpeltv1080]

Minion Bonespaer will be my go to build.

[@Smokeyxz]

Same

[@MajesticColly]

I’ve only recently discovered a lot of the Diablo world and your videos have been great. I don’t know if this is your full time gig, but the way you crunch the numbers and builds etc is wild. You come across as someone that could tell me a great build for my tax return 😂 Cheers Rob, looking forward to S4

[@dacool561]

How does this compare to the lazimancer? I’m looking for the most powerful build with the least amount of work/rotation 😂

[@Rob2628]

Both are somewhat equal just decide based on what you prefer

[@subzero308]

Same right now in the game i go afk and my minions do everything... I have to push maybe 1 button every now and then lol.

[@CarnivoreSwe]

Thanks for this, my season 4 bible!

[@demonslayer9016]

Thank you for you're impartiality and all the work you do Rob !

[@markpaquette1665]

@Rob2628 Your skill tree is for 1 shot boss, but you are explaining the mage build the entire time. This video is very all over the place. Why is nobody else talking about this?

[@MrModerate_kane]

I joined D4 as necro, i wanted to play minions but it was never viable, always had to go back to spear or spirit. Now finally i get to play the class fantasy i wanted and still be competent at the end game, as we will get there faster this season.

[@3vilclown892]

Been watching your videos since launch of 4. And I have to say it's odd watching you so a video on Necro 😅. But I'm stoked everyone is excited about Necro this season. Good vid.

[@problemfan5365]

Moin Rob. Eignet sich die Golem Variante auch fürs normale spielen oder ist das nur ein Boss Killer? LG

[@rigorr2]

thanks for the vid. defnitley going minion build.

[@occy127]

That seneschal pet walked off lol glad to see the back of that crap!

[@urbanops9882]

Make a best leveling guide for Necro to lvl 70 or something

[@mehmetabdullah250]

its out there everywhere already

[@gloggare]

he did make a video for leveling... basicly jsut do hell tide untill you pass out

[@adams5507]

press the I win button done

[@smolPig21]

just follow the end game builds... You don't need levelling guide for minions it's just that powerful

[@subzero308]

Just have fun go crazy and become the Minion King... That's what ima do lol... Been a necro Minion main since day 1 and they r finally back to be amazing.

[@yharnamiyhill787]

How important are curses? Is there still the unique pants that can apply curse instead of having it on the skill bar?

[@Rob2628]

They are great to slow, for damage reduction & for additional damage with passives & glyphs. You want to 100% have your enemies cursed

[@derrickcall9307]

I really like your builds but why do you not add the leveling path on your d4 page for the skills?

[@Adam-ey4iv]

Love the build so far! Is there an end game version that uses Ubers? I imagine shako could fit nicely into this build

[@eraldohaba8216]

Hi Rob, I guess this will be the season of the necro and you will definitely do it, but don't forget about the Barb💪can't wait to know what build you will do for the barbarian 👍

[@Rob2628]

Hey man, thanks for the support! - I will drop my Barbarian Build soon 😎

[@kenai6935]

Finally I see your background 😅😅

[@Rob2628]

😂

[@ryandare1636]

Why does maxroll not show + golem mastery as available on items anymore?

[@EternalGaze8]

That’s how they fixed the crazy damage. They removed it

[@donpandagaming8449]

waiting for your updated necromancer builds. most of the recommended tempers are total armor but that's too much since they already announce to only cap at 9230.

[@luckyirishlad2011]

im ready for log in sim on the 14th got my place in que number 9999999

[@catbhoy]

Do the changes only affect a seasonal character or do they affect an eternal character as well

[@CincinnatiReefer]

the build guide has corpse explosion but its not on the skill bar, why put points into it?

[@Castilloux03]

Yeah , i think its not the good title with the build on his page . This is his golem minion build , not just the minion build in which he use the explosive mist aspect , thats why you need the explosion corpse ( i think )

[@Castilloux03]

Ho i just saw that he put both build in the video lol , i was only looking at certain point of the video lol but yeah , in the skeletal only version , you are using the explosive mist aspect , which triggers explosion on surrounding corpse

[@zometthecomet]

SALTY !! And Already trying to get his Barb build buffed

[@alessiopaggini1099]

Then for the general pourpose is golem or mage build to do? I think I want to push pity and do general Uber boos

[@davidjvaliente]

Just a comment when you do play the build. I've been playing it as mage summoner and its been blasting. However, corpse generation is quite difficult. Corpses are very important as they are the method we make enemies vulnerable and activate the priest buff on one of our legendaries.

[@MikkiZHskDK]

yo rob should we start out with the standard build while leveling? or go straight for the boss killer version, if i want a smooth leveling experience and get to wt4 early

[@TommyHardy5497]

So shadowblight is basically for bossing? Assuming its better to use kalans edicts for general dungeon gameplay for the minion attack speed.

[@Aldrick1944]

I do agree. Shadowmages or golem build. BEST OVERALL. From zero to hero. 🧟

[@Moonface00z]

Ok so which minion build to start with The mage or Golem ??

[@subzero308]

Yes.

[@kim_yong_un]

Mage

[@alexanderanghel7946]

Is there a viable pvp build for necro this season?

[@simonvtf]

on the planner you have corpse explosion on the skill tree but not on the bar , is it a mistake ?

[@tonyx5718]

I think you want the aspect for triggering corpse explosion with blood mist

[@seemlessartcreations]

Without a basic skill under the left mouse button, how do you smash boxes, vases, ore mounds, etc? Are you left with only F for interacting with things?

[@MrMrTravman]

Decrep directs the minions

[@fnzvsaz5216]

idk...i play with the skeleton mage pit runner build, ive got pretty decent gear with almost the best possible tempering and perfect aspects yet i cant finish lvl 80 pit because it took "ages" to kill the boss, ive seen a lot of videos where someone just popped army of dead and the boss died in no time. i dont have the perfect gear so i dont expect to kill a lvl 80 pit boss in 3 second but man it took me around 2 minutes while dodging the one shot mechanic abilities. and i have zero idea what im doing wrong

[@thebadlilsaint]

thx very much for this,

You're welcome! Enjoy S4 :)

[@TheLaurenssssss]

Coming back to the game bow am I correct that Wernardo Druid is one the same lvl as this? Are both viable to kill Uber lillitth? Still need to kill her

[@f.m848]

What's the most survivable class? I've only tried Barb, Necro, and Rogue, and my Necro can easily survive Tier 90+ NDs with no Ubers but my Barb and especially Rogue can never survive 90+ ND without the Melted Heart Uber. Hell, I can't even do Tier 90 ND with my rogue even with 2 Ubers.

[@loganhayden6135]

probably druid with the fort buffs, barb lost their 10% DR

I'm going to play season 4 because it'll be the first season I don't have to inch and crawl my way with minions

Rob: “FOUR BILLION DOLLARS!”

[@tonyx5718]

Did something change with this build recently? I see the golem is sacrificed now?

[@KatCat18]

No? The planner shows a blood golem which is what you want to use

[@tonyx5718]

​@@KatCat18The video does but if you click the link to the build it got updated

Will this build be viable in Season 5?

[@freemania525]

Shadowblight doesnt seem to stack up with the mages for me? Have them set to shadow but they never increase stacks. Any ideas?

[@TommyHardy5497]

My thought is the enemies are dying too fast for the shadowblight to damage them to gain the stacks. It seems like the shadowblight is better used on bosses and the minion attack speed for general gameplay.

[@vreelz]

Thank you, you beautiful soul

[@Dal4f]

They didnt nerf it?

[@thertcll]

So many people are gonna start this build just because of everyone saying it's the best, and not realize that the summoner playstyle isn't for them. Should probably include a disclaimer for them.

[@redbloodreaver4935]

Then they will very quickly realize this and go play something else. It's no biggie

When you decied to check some videos to see if your doing ok and realize your already doing the meta. .... at almost 95%

ROB, i'm french and new here !! i'm following your MINION necro build but i don't understand, why you put point in Destruction corps, but we don't have it in comp bar .

[@cursedtv9636]

@Rob2628 hey rob was trying to emulate ur necro build, but noticed that in the 2h wep u have put attack speed as one of the perk, but actually is not a roll? or i cant find it in any of the base wep with crit strike dmg, thought?

[@TommyHardy5497]

They took it out since the PTR. Assuming best option would be crit damage now along with intelligence and Max life.

[@mcarr416ix]

Is Shadowblight the better option than Edict? You aren't really scaling Shadowblight at all but this is still better than minion attack speed?

[@vreelz]

I believe through parago and skill tree, you can cap out the attack speed. Minions cap at 100%

[@mcarr416ix]

@@vreelz that kind of sucks, because it doesn't feel like Shadow Blight is really adding much here, maybe im wrong, just feels like we are taking it because there's nothing else.

@mcarr416ix I think it's mostly for that 20x multiplier and then the added bonus of having your mages stack the shadow debuff plus the weapon afix.

I generally agree with you but there is a limit to how much you can buff builds in Diablo 4 or we end up like in D4 with trillions & trillions of damage

[@MasyaTyan]

It depends on difficulty of end content, if all builds get power ups without adding hard content it's gonna be too boring IMO (Sorry for poor eng)
